Objective. To identify the possibilities of using of the Russian-language versions of the BIQLI and ASI-R (T.F. Cash) questionnaires to study the body image and its components in healthy women and in surgical patients.
Methods. The study included 444 apparently healthy women, 40 patients of a surgical hospital and 40 clients of a plastic surgeon using BIQLI and ASI-R questionnaires to assess the quality of life due to the characteristics of self-perception.
Results. The average scores of the questionnaires were: BIQLI – 1.41±0.91 (CI 1.32; 1.49); ASI-R – 3.53±0.55 (CI 3.48; 3.59). Cronbach Alpha: BIQLI – 0.94; ASI-R – 0.84. For the self-esteem scale of the ASI-R questionnaire – 3.42±0.64 (CI 3.35; 3.48); Cronbach alpha – 0.82. For the ASI-R motivation scale – 3.71±0.58 (CI 3.65; 3.76); Cronbach alpha – 0.65. Pearson coefficients inside the questionnaires: BIQLI – 0.5-0.8; ASI-R – 0.3-0.7; motivation scale with a total score - 0.8; self-assessment scale with a total score - 0.9; scales of motivation and self-esteem among themselves – 0.5. 399 (89.8%) respondents had a positive body image. In surgical patients, the median BIQLI score was 1.5, in plastic surgeon clients – 1.5, a positive body image – in 33 (82.5%) and 32 (80 %), respectively. A statistically significant difference was revealed only on the issue of “relations with their family” (p=0.01).
Conclusion. High reliability and validity of the Russian-language versions of the BIQLI and ASI-R questionnaires were revealed in determining the quality of life associated with the perception of their own appearance in practically healthy women, which makes it possible to recommend them for use in scientific research. The developed version of BIQLI questionnaires can be recommended for widespread use and in practical research, including the surgical patients.
